A Question for Folks Who Do Video Editing

This isn't so much a question, or even a blog post as it is a screech of rage and despair: 


 I was finally confident enough of having licked my audio issues  that I had decided to expand and professionalize my channel, resuming multi-streaming, returning to Kick.com and dipping my toe into You Tube & X. Last nights stream (mentioned below) seemed to go reasonably well. However, watching the V.O.D. of what had appeared to be a near perfect stream, the GAME AUDIO cut off 3/4 of the way through the broadcast. As near as I can tell, this was associated with a scene change (I activated a BRB screen, and, on the V.O.D., after said scene was closed out, my game audio was taken by the Fae.) 

My sound board looked right, chat said nothing ( Yes I actually had chatters and interacted with them during this time) yet the V.O.D. shows no game audio...just me commenting positively on Yo Hoyo's "gnarly sound design" which is, of course, not in the V.O.D. audio.

 Looking at my OBS archival recording, the game audio after that point is audible, but only * just* barely. 

Saturday had been a very long, physically demanding day and I do note that towards the end of the stream, I had begun to slightly slur my speech (a sign of exhaustion that is a lingering side effect of the stroke), so a P.E.B.K.A.C. error is certainly possible. However, I cannot imagine what that could have been. I assume, that the audio channel for the V.O.D/archival recording is ONE channel, and not split up in some bizarre  way by OBS sources. 

So: Those of you that do AV editing:
Has anyone had anything like this happen? This is so odd and specific that it almost HAS to have been an error on my end, but it seems to be running fine now. (At least the archival recording is).  I'm sorry to bother everyone with my interminable derpitude. I'm just grasping at straws. Now I'm slurring rather spectacularly, so I don't want to do a test stream. 

Going to get a nap.

1 I have no idea. From what I can tell, this category of software is just not very consistent and reliable, and I cannot tell how much is simply microsoft. (I did have my first audio error (that I did not bother troubleshooting) on Linux recently.)
